Planes must move quickly in air or else they fall out of the sky,
trains can travel at any speed.
It is possible to design trains to travel at aircraft speeds (sub-sonic only) but it is prohibitively expensive.
If a train were to travel through a tunnel in a vacuum, it could travel at any speed short of the speed of light, in theory.

How fast can airpanes go?
Some rocket planes can go as fast as six times the speed of sound. Most military fighter planes do not go faster than twice the speed of sound, and the typical civilian passenger/transport plane goes slower than the sound barrier.
What is the reason of the change of speed of planes?
So they go faster or slower.
How are trains better than cars?
Cars are better then trains because they can travel faster, and are more comfortable to travel in.

Can an airplane go faster than its sound?
Yes, there are several military aircraft that can go 2x, 3x or even 4x the speed of sound such as the SR-71 Blackbird.the area a lot of planes capable of that
